SIS DRI module unresolved symbols

I'm trying to set up a friend of mine with a Linux box (RedHat 7.2 -
XFree86 4.1.0). I'm running into problems getting the SIS DRI module to
load into the kernel because sis_malloc and, I believe sis_free do not
resolve. I tried compiling it into the kernel, but the link at the end
failed, for the same reasons. The details:

<*> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
[*] Intel 440LX/BX/GX and I815/I830M/I840/I850 support
[*] Intel I810/I815/I830M (on-board) support
[*] VIA chipset support
[*] AMD Irongate, 761, and 762 support
[*] Generic SiS support
[*] ALI chipset support
[*] Serverworks LE/HE support
[*] Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 DRI support)
[ ] Build drivers for old (XFree 4.0) DRM
--- DRM 4.1 drivers
<M> 3dfx Banshee/Voodoo3+
<M> ATI Rage 128
<M> ATI Radeon
<M> Intel I810
<M> Matrox g200/g400
<*> SiS

This produces:
... -o vmlinux
drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_fb_alloc':
drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x6893): undefined reference to
`sis_malloc'
drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x68d6): undefined reference to `sis_free'
drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_fb_free':
drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x69c8): undefined reference to `sis_free'
drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_final_context':
drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x6e4e): undefined reference to `sis_free'

Granted, he does have the one chipset not supported: 5591/5592.
Nonetheless, the kernel should still compile and link. Anyway, here's
his lspci output:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 630 Host (rev 21)
00:00.1 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] (rev
d0)

The same thing happens with 2.4.17 .

Thanks for your help.
